NOW AT FINE LINE DESIGNS:

 

John Taylor

Raised on the Connecticut seacoast, and now living in Southern California, John Taylor obsessively resurrects forgotten vessels of America's maritime fleet.  Spontaneously using materials at hand, found, and brought to him, he seeks the tipping point between the reality of objects and their ability to act as a nautical time portal.  A self-taught artist, Taylor regularly exhibits in Seattle, New York, Atlanta, and Los Angeles. When asked about his work John replied," I prefer work which is not correct or regular, that is divorced from precedents, work that is not fine or fully explained.  The ships should appear so old as to have never had a beginning, representing a tally of life and character, seldom telling a thing, but suggesting it."

John resides, with his wife and children, in San Juan Capistrano, CA.
